# Jelly's Manga Reading Thingy.
This is my own rendition of the excellent [Mokuro](https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro) project, made mostly just to do it.
That being said, if you have any suggestions, please give me a heads-up and I will be happy to implement it. Probably.

## Usage
1. Prepare a folder containing the images you would like to process. As of v.0.0.1 the images in this folder must be named the page number you would like that image to be.
   (e.g. the PNG image you would like to use as the second page should be titled "2.png")
   The name of the folder will be the name of the resultant HTML file. (e.g. if your folder is titled "Naruto" the output HTML file will be "Naruto.html" )
2. Run comic-reader-ocr and enter the "folder" command.
3. Enter the absolute path of the folder from step 1 and wait for comic-reader-ocr to process all the images.
4. Once finished, the resulting HTML file will be placed in an outputs folder within the folder from step 1.
5. Open the resulting HTML using your web browser of choice.

## FAQs (as decided by Myself)
1. Is this a worse version of various other projects (e.g. [Mokuro](https://github.com/kha-white/mokuro))?

   - Yes.

2. Do you know how to like. Write things. That work?

   - No.

3. Why did you do this?

   - As a learning exercise, mostly. Plus, I like trying to reinvent wheels.

4. Can I make suggestions?

   - Yes. 

5. Did you use AI for this?

   - Yes. Most of the HTML and JS was AI generated, as unfortunately I really *really* don't like looking at either of those things.

6. Are you going to try to make this a webapp because that probably makes a lot of sense or just. Like. Something that isn't Python so that it's easier to distribute or something?

   - Yes. I'll probably try to rewrite this in Rust or do something like the [mokuro-reader](https://github.com/Gnathonic/mokuro-reader) project.
